Dixie-Anna: Minstrel Show Intro Lyrics

Lyrics/Music T.Koehler/J.McHugh

The Louisiana moon is shining
On the starry sky, alone
The lonesome an' the old are waiting
And the lady loves, hmmmm
While the shades of night are falling
You can hear them softly calling

Dixie-Anna
Oh Miss Dixie-Anna
Don't keep me waiting
If you want to come out tonight
Roll and shinin'
And my heart divinin'
Come on and meet me in the moonlight

Can't you understand
Love is in the air
Love pretending there rolling everywhere

Dixie-Anna
Oh Miss Dixie-Anna
Don't keep me waiting
If you want to come out tonight
Lone and shining
And my heart inviting
Come out and meet me in the moonlight

Oh Dixie-Anna 
Don't you keep me waiting
You know that ain't right
